i've been very very very busy lately, as per usual. today i had another mini-presentation that i think went quite well. our big task is to design and build a cardboard chair. i am making a little art chair for young children that they can draw all over. it's pretty cute, i think. anyway, i felt it was only fair to show you something, so here are some nice new and old skirts that (hopefully) you are yet to see.

market buys

today, as promised, i went to the suitcase rummage. it was loads of fun and there were many nice people selling lots of cheap things. most people were selling second-hand clothes, while others brought along sweet little homemade wares. some people had even baked cupcakes for the occasion! it was all very nice, but i got a little sick of rummaging and rifling towards the end. anyway, here are a couple of the things i've been buying over the last few days.

1. a beautiful spotted neck scarf from the rummage.
2. a nice brown dress from the 60's that my boyfriend found for me in the rummage.
3. another rummage dress that looks really cute on but is a little too big.
4. a skirt that i spent too much money on at the finders keepers market. it's pretty damn nice. it flares out at the sides just like those american apparel circle skirts.

1. the nicest bracelet in the world from the finders keepers market. it reminds me of bit of those hermes bracelets that i love.
2. a gold bow which arrived in the mail a few weeks ago. it's an old avon brooch and it's really nice but i never get the chance to wear it.

and this little guy was only a dollar!

three skirts

here are three skirts that i can expect in the mail in the next week-or-two.
i think they're all so nice! i have my eye on so many others, but my wallet won't give.

stripes!

today i bought this nice striped shirt for only ten dollars! i was very pleased. it does tend to pull in funny places, though. don't mind my particularly messy bedroom. i fixed it, i swear!


shirt is from supre, belt is from a store in the city that i can't remember the name of, and the skirt is from a cute retro store in paddington. the shoes are jane debster, and are made of a suede type fabric with terribly nice bows on the front.
